Administered by DAFM. Farmers must submit an on-farm solar survey with their application. Electricity must be used for agricultural purposes. Reference costs subject to DAFM review.
How the TAMS Process Works
SMC Energy handles the complexity — here's what happens from first call to first generation.
Free Farm Assessment
We assess your roof, electricity usage, and ideal system size. You get a clear picture of cost, grant, and payback before committing to anything.
We Handle Your TAMS Application
We prepare and submit your TAMS 3 application to DAFM — including the required on-farm solar survey. No paperwork headaches on your end.
Approval & Installation
Once DAFM approves, we install your system. Works cannot start before approval — we manage the timeline so nothing gets missed.
Grant Paid — Bills Drop
DAFM pays the grant directly to you after completion. Your farm electricity costs start falling from day one of generation.
